SCVNews.com | Mission Valley Bank Announces Record Loan Growth, Cash Dividend

Mission Valley BankMission Valley Bancorp announced Monday a net income of $4.8 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, for the year ended Dec. 31, 2022, compared to net income of $5.0 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, for the year ended Dec. 31, 2021. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $1.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, compared to net income of $0.9 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2021.

“2022 was another banner year for Mission Valley,” said Tamara Gurney, president and chief executive officer. “We achieved record loan growth of $122.4 million and generated net income of $4.8 million driven by core earnings, which was only $0.2 million lower than our record net income in 2021 that was boosted by $2.5 million, or $1.8 million net of tax, from the one-time CDFI Rapid Response Program grant and gain from the sale of our Round 2 PPP loans. The exceptional loan growth and strong financial results are a reflection of the quality of our current team of employees, our platform, and financial position. We believe that we are well positioned to withstand the potentially challenging and recessionary environment that 2023 may bring, based on the strength of our team, balance sheet, capital position, and prudent measures that we have taken including the restructuring of our lending and credit teams with a focus on portfolio management, retention, and risk mitigation.”

Mission Valley’s board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.15 per share on Jan. 24, 2023.  The dividend will be payable on or about Feb. 28, 2023 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on Feb. 15, 2023.

“I am also pleased to announce cash dividends for the second consecutive year, and sixth in the history of our Company, in the amount of $0.15 per common share based on our stellar results for 2022,” Gurney added.
